Which bowl game will be more high scoring, West Virginia-Syracuse or Baylor-UCLA?

If you strictly go by what the odds makers are saying, most are predicting 80-plus points for the Baylor-UCLA game and 70-plus points for the matchup between West Virgina and Syracuse.

But KC Joyner of ESPN has tabbed the WVU-Syracuse game as the game with the potential to have the highest scores.

The reason? Geno Smith and Tavon Austin.

Baylor fans remember those two names all too well. Back in the regular season, Smith passed for 656 yards and eight touchdowns against the Bears’ defense. He had more touchdowns than incompletions (six).
